Coats, parkas, capes and down jackets: is it a matter of style or of temperature? The two of them often coincide. One of the main issue is that feeling cold in a skimpy mini coat at 0° C is incredibly little chic. The same thing is true if you choose to disappear in a faux fur coat or a big down jacket when outside is +10°C. Jackets should be choosen according to the climate of the place where we are, the rest is all about good taste. As always.
Coats, parkas, capes and down jackets how to choose
Style icons or survivor’s blankets: Coats, parkas, capes and down jackets
If I had to choose a near-perfect mix I would go for a parka with a colored fur inside. If you constantly surf the web you may have already seen fashionistas wrapped almost to disappear in super colorful and soft furs that almost makes us think that living the bed for real life in the morning is going to be less traumatic. Declined in quartz according to Pantone, fuchsia for lovers of bold colors and cherry red for those who certainly does not like to go unnoticed.
Concerning to capes, I do not find them a real alternative to a coat, but more often an accessory to use over a sweater and a tailoring pants especially in spring. If you can not say no to one of them in the middle of winter, you can try with one with short sleeves worn under a coat in cases of freezing weather. Maybe white or colored like this entrancing cape.
The duvets are all a different story. Casual, padded, very bulky even if you go for the very popular 100g version. I would use them just to go to the gym, bring the dog out in the morning with my pijamas underneath or for skiing.
